Dynamic_PDF_Generator

Problem Statement:

Build a Spring Boot Application with REST API to generate PDF using Java Template Engine.

Requirement

• REST API to accept data and generate a PDF based on the received data.
• Ability to download the above-generated PDF

Use Java Template Engines like Thymeleaf or iText to generate the PDF and store it on the local storage which can be retrieved later. The input should have a proper schema.

Example The request body of the API call looks something like this:

• { "seller": "XYZ Pvt. Ltd.", "sellerGstin": "29AABBCCDD121ZD", "sellerAddress": "New Delhi, India", "buyer": "Vedant Computers", "buyerGstin": "29AABBCCDD131ZD", "buyerAddress": "New Delhi, India", "items": [ { "name": "Product 1", "quantity": "12 Nos", "rate": 123.00, "amount": 1476.00 } ] }

• PDF Sample

Note

• Only REST APIs are required. No UI.
• Testable on Postman / Swagger.
• Will prefer properly structured code.
• Will prefer Test Cases (TDD)

Tech Stack Used

• Spring Boot
• Swagger
• Lombook
• ItextPDF
• Thymeleaf
